Additional Information
Andy Warhol created a series of silkscreened images of Marilyn Monroe in the four months following her death from a barbiturates overdose in August 1962, and continued making them for several years after. Monroe and her tragic death were a perfect pairing of two of Warhol’s consistent themes – celebrity and death. He used a publicity photograph of Monroe used to promote her 1953 film Niagara, and printed the image repeatedly.
A 52 x 52 cm square, the pink and yellow neon light is hand-assembled from high quality neon flex mounted to a recycled acrylic board featuring an image of the original artwork. This neon flex is made from PVC or Silicon piping with LED lights inside, which is 80% more energy efficient than traditional neon signs whilst delivering the same intense brightness.
The piece comes with a dimmer, UK plug, a 3 metre transparent cable, and an installation kit. The installation kit contains enough specialist screws for you to easily affix your sign to your wall. For peace of mind, the signs are insured during transport, and come with a 1 year guarantee. It’s packed in 100% recycled packaging, with no unnecessary plastic.
About the artist
Andy Warhol (1928 – 1987) was an American artist whose work commented on contemporary themes in American society: consumerism, celebrity, mass production, disaster and death. His openness to subject matter was matched by a willingness to explore all media, resulting in an innovative approach to painting, photography, drawing, printmaking, and experimental filmmaking. He introduced popular everyday subjects into his practice, openly acknowledging the wide-ranging influences on his work, and built a lasting reputation as one of the most important figures of the Pop Art movement.
